Abstract

The article explores the problems that society faces with in the era of the global information revolution. In the electronic space, behavioral standards and value orientations of the individual are changing. All this creates a number of serious moral and legal problems that require discussion within the framework of humanitarian knowledge. The need for a society in universal moral norms is solved at the expense of axiological pluralism. It is claimed that the pluralistic ideology of the information society leads to the loss of a clear hierarchy of moral values, the growth of alienation and the loss of connection with its authenticity. Law as a way of regulating public relations, affects information processes, their globalization. The world powers are beginning to realize the need to create a broad legal framework for monitoring the content of the Internet. The complexity of this problem is determined by its global nature, therefore the implementation of control requires concerted action by the entire world community. It is necessary to modernize both the legal system of society and form new ethical norms of behavior in cyberspace. The dialectical interconnection and interdependence of legal, moral and technological factors in the formation of the information society is manifested in the liberalization of rules for the regulation of the information space, the formation of new norms of behavior, changes in information legislation, the role of state regulation and international cooperation.
